The Palm Beach Health Network donated $300,000 worth of nursing scholarships to three area nursing schools as part of the State of Florida’s LINE grant program that provides matching funds to nursing schools.
PBHN provided 30 nursing students with $10,000 scholarships at the following schools: Palm Beach Atlantic University, Florida Atlantic University, and Indian River State College this year.
“We take the training of our nurses seriously. They are the backbone of the high-quality care we provide at our PBHN hospitals which feature some of the most complex and innovative programs throughout South Florida and the Treasure Coast,” said Ricky Ramirez, Group Chief Nursing Officer, Palm Beach Health Network. “The LINE program has made the dream of becoming a nurse much more attainable in Florida by helping remove barriers like cost, so the focus can remain on learning how to provide exceptional care.”
